Lisa!! That was *excellent*!
You really need to start posting more stories, girl. Seriously.
“Eat, darlings. Your father had to go out.”
Yep. He's gone out... of his mind, that is. *lol* Sorry, couldn't help it. Nasty dude, this Trask!!
Loved this little fic. It reminded me of some of the scenes in JFK - with the father so absorbed by his work and concerns that he barely seens his wife and kids... Definitely how a government operative would be, in my opinion.
Well done!
